There aren’t many artists who would take eight months to return to the country where their latest album hit #1. But Beyoncé ain’t any ordinary artist.
Some eights after her third studio album, I Am… Sasha Fierce, charted in at #1 on the U.S. Billboard 200, the Texas native will officially embark on a two month tour in support of the release. Beginning in early July, Beyoncé will launch the U.S. portion of her “I Am…” tour, one which will reportedly feature a 58-piece wardrobe for Knowles and her dancers and an extensive light show. Currently, the 22-date trek, which marks Beyoncé’s third concert tour since going solo, runs throw early August, wrapping up with a four-night stint in Las Vegas.
The U.S. leg will be proceeded by her recently launched European tour, which essentially takes Beyoncé everywhere. Well, everywhere except Glastonbury, but not all rumors can come true…
